EDWARDS, Judge.
The defendant, Derrick Wayne Jacobs, was charged by bill of information with four counts of simple burglary, in violation of LSA-R.S. 14:62. He pled not guilty and elected trial by jury. At some point in the proceedings, Count 2 apparently was severed from the remaining three counts of simple burglary. After a jury trial on Count 2 only, the defendant was found guilty as charged. He received a sentence of seven years at hard labor.
